The Cross

Christ is at the centre of all we do here at St Emilies. The cross lies at the centre of our logo to remind us that we are never alone and that Christ has no body now, but ours. We have each been called to go out and be the hands, the feet, the eyes of Christ in our world. This is both a challenge and a gift.

The Leaves

The two leaves symbolise growth here at St Emilies – as individuals, as a community and as lifelong learners. We are each called upon to nurture one another through word and action, so that we can realise our fullest potential – academically, socially, emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Four Quadrants

The quadrants represent the four key stakeholders in our community – students, staff, families and parish. We believe in the power of team work and of the potential for achieving quality outcomes when all stakeholders work closely together in a spirit of mutual respect , trust and collaboration.

Colour Gold

We walk together as ‘children of the light’. We walk without fear. We walk with trust that the light of Christ will shine brightly in our lives and in our school community  and show us the way to a life journey  based upon mutual respect, inner strength, courage, kindness, goodness, compassion, truth, forgiveness and justice.

Colour Royal Blue

The royal blue symbolises our God-given freedom, and the strength and peace we find in our faith and in respectful relationships with one another.

Our School Motto

Growing in Grace

Where there is no growth, there is no life.  To ‘grow in grace’ is to open our minds, hearts and souls towards receiving the free gifts of the Spirit into our lives. It is about fully opening ourselves to allowing the creative power of God’s great love, peace and forgiveness, to guide and sustain us so that we can go out and BE GOOD NEWS to all those we meet.

School Song

GROWING IN GRACE

We pray, Lord, that you’ll guide us to walk hand in hand
With kindness, gentleness we will treat every friend
Just like Saint Emily who followed in your way
Help us share our gifts as we grow in grace

Jesus, be in our hearts
Let your grace come down upon us
And in harmony we will walk
In the footprints of your love
As our story unfolds in this nurturing place
We are learning every day
In Your family we are growing in grace

Together Lord, we gather here to laugh, learn and live
Your words Lord, teach us to love and to give
Guided by your Spirit Lord, we come to you in faith
As one community, let us grow in grace

School Prayer

St Emilie, our Mother and guide

You were so filled with love of God

that you helped others in difficult times.

Please help us to be like you and love others.

Amen

St Emilie, pray for us.
